    Thread sticking out
    Penelope C.

    I went in for threads . 3x here New nurse . She barely used any numbing cream and after 5 minutes came back with over sized surgical gloves. Asked me where I wanted them. "I said look at my chart " I am not the expert . ( she didn't) She started jabbing me. Areas I hadn't done before .Under my eye, my cheek. I started bruising immediately. When I called they brushed it off "you can bruise" This badly? The thread is literally poking out under my right eye, now that it's in full effect it's worse. Started puckering and waiting to heal. I can't find anyone to fix it as it's not thier work. They never offered to fix, reimburse me or any sympathy whatsoever. Sorry for the unflattering photos.

    This is a picture of my swollen face after PDO threads on my left side (looking at it, your right side). This hurt so badly for three weeks!

    Pearl MedSpa seemed upset that I wrote a negative review, yet waited until now to respond because I was scheduled to come in to use the last of a Botox package. Apparently, that's what it takes for a call back. At least I'm getting a refund for unused packages. For the record, everyone should see this picture of my face after their PDO threads. When they were inserted, I screamed. It felt like I had been hit across the face with a bat. Do you know what that is? It's nerve pain. Nerves run along the side of your face. Luckily, no permanent damage. Just extreme swelling and pain for three weeks. Do you think anyone at their clinic cared about this? No.

    After

    First experience: Bought a vile of voluma ($900) and Botox ($10 a unit) over the phone on one of their days of beauty online specials. I was planning on using the voluma for a non-surgical nose job. I was told while booking my appointment that it could not be used for that procedure because they didn't do those. I requested a refund which was granted by the office manager. First appointment: I went in for my appointment for Botox and was told I could have used the voluma (That I was just refunded for the day before) in other areas other than the nose which I was unaware of. If I wanted it I would now be charged $1000 for a vile. They had me in office so accepted because of convince. Once I got home I did a little research and found the average price in Portland is 600-800. I felt ripped off. Months later I fell for another online special and bought juvaderm. Second appointment: Saw Theresa for lip injections (which they suggested was the best area to use this on). I was very leery considering I wanted a natural look but was assured she knew what she was doing. My lips came out lumpy and uneven. They now look unnatural and too large. I called and was told to fix the lumpy look I would need additional filler to even it out. No thanks! I wouldn't want to go through all that swelling again and plus they are too big already. They look like crap and it's obvious I had injections, (not the look I was going for). Good thing we are wearing masks at the moment. Overall, two bad experiences.

After one treatment here, i already can tell a huge difference! My face is smoother, and hair is less noticeable. There is some pain in not going to lie, but it really is tolerable. I also love the after care used, really makes you feel taken care of. I have many more treatments to go but am very excited to see the result!

    With "discounts", I was still quoted at over $1100 per SESSION with the need for 6-8 sessions…read moreinitially and then 2-3x yearly. I asked if the 2-3x per year was forever, and was told "No, not forever! Only while you're alive. Hair doesn't grow after you die". They stress that a reduction in hair growth (and not full removal) of 60-75% is the best I could hope for. I was also told my skin was very damaged, and I would need photo facial services almost everywhere I was looking to get laser hair removal (under chin, legs, bikini, underarms). I'm 32 and have since been asked about my great complexion. Additionally, I've subsequently found out the "laser" there is not a laser. I'm not an expert, but from pictures on their website, it's a Palomar StarLux 500, which uses Intense Pulse Light or IPL, and is somewhat outdated (and relatively inexpensive) technology. With what was being charged for a year of sessions, I could pay for the machine myself. Overall, I felt pretty self conscious after my initial consultation and wondered if my presupposed budget was wildly off base. After talking to friends and other businesses, this is by far the most expensive package I could find, and it doesn't have the technology, results, or added value to merit the price.

By the end of the call, we were able to resolve the matter fairly (in my opinion, at least). I really appreciate her willingness to see the situation from my perspective and her taking accountability for the misleading wording on the website. I'm now taking back my comment about the spa being "shady," since it has become clear that this was an honest mistake. However, I still stand by my concern that the membership terms and wording should have been much clearer from the beginning. I'm glad Balm took my concerns seriously and made an effort to make things right. I hope the website will be updated soon to provide more clarity, so issues like this can be avoided in the future. I had 2 laser hair removal treatments here. While the service was nothing to write home about, the way this business handles its memberships is incompetent at best and shady at worst. I signed up for their LARGE LASER MEMBERSHIP, which is advertised on their website as having the benefits of "Any 1 Extra-Large Laser" and "Any 2 Large Laser" each month, with savings of $304/month and a retail value of $603 (screenshot below). Maybe I'm delusional, please let me know, but how is anyone supposed to interpret that wording as anything other than 1 extra large + 2 large services included? Even their own membership portal shows 3 separate coupons for these 3 services. I had my extra large laser with no issue, but when I came back for the 2 large services, the tech told me I actually had to choose between the extra large and 2 large services (?). I ended up having to cancel my appointment and go home. Their manager reached out via text and basically admitted that the wording on the website AND the membership portal is misleading, and that I actually did have to choose between the 2 options. I asked for a refund because I wouldn't have purchased the membership had the terms been clearly stated. Of course, they refused. At this point, I've given up on trying to get a refund. I don't have the time or energy to keep going back and forth with these people. I'm posting this as a PSA for anyone considering signing up for any of their laser memberships: ask a lot of questions before giving them your money.

Though I understand it is not effective for everyone. The treatments are insanely expensive, so I recommend saving up or opening a new credit card to earn points with your payment. Milan offers "unlimited" sessions (with the asterisk that no longer applies if they go out of business or change their name) per body area (which can be specific or a bundle - full body, lower or upper legs, panty line or brazilian, belly, chest, back, underarms, neck, face, upper lip, etc). I consider the unlimited package an advantage for hair growth driven by hormonal causes as hormones may fluctuate and you may need ongoing touchup sessions. A word of caution that the pain can be intense, especially as sessions go on. I wish they offered a free trial session so people could see if they can handle it before committing. The office here in Beaverton is clean and the staff has been friendly and welcoming. Scheduling is simple but they are quite booked up. As a customer you're able to visit any office in the United States, but this one has been the most convenient for me.

    When I was first researching hair removal, I came upon Milan. Their prices, unfortunately, were 3-4…read moretimes the cost of other bids from other sources. I then was contacted by Milan and I declined their services due to their costs. They continued to text me constantly as well as email me relentlessly.

I usually would not take the time to make this type of negative review, but when I received another one just now it just hit my last nerve. So beware when you're looking into their services , you could become their next trapped into never-ending text trap.

    I had been shopping around for facial laser hair removal and was honestly discouraged by how…read moreimpersonal and outrageously expensive some places were. Then I stumbled upon Silky Skin and spoke with Norma, and I'm so glad I did. From the very beginning, Norma was incredibly kind, informative, and reasonably priced. I've now had several appointments with her, and I'm absolutely loving the results--the treatments have been so effective! What really sets Norma apart is how professional and caring she is. She genuinely cares about her clients and the results of her services, and that comes through at every appointment. I couldn't recommend Norma enough. If you're considering laser hair removal, she is absolutely worth seeing. I would recommend her 100 times over!

    If you have ever been interested in laser hair removal, even slightly, please consider reading…read moreabout Norma at her SilkySkin center in Clackamas and making a consultation appointment. You will learn about how laser hair removal works, how easy the process is, and if you end up choosing to continue, I am confident you will love the results. (And surprisingly, in my opinion, it is less painful than you might imagine!) I'm sure many laser hair removal centers will have similar, amazing results, but I very much hope you will bring your business to Norma. As you've read in other reviews, she is a professional, her space is clean and safe, she communicates regularly, and listens well. What really strikes me about Norma though, and why I wanted to submit a review, is that she is truly a beautiful person who cares about her clients and their personal journeys toward smooth skin, and/or self-confidence, and/or feeling beautiful in your own skin. Norma is a generous, kind soul, the exact person you would trust and feel comfortable with as you pursue what hair removal will do for you.
